Liverpool indie rockers The Wombats have shared the video for their new single “I Think My Mind Has Made Its Mind Up“.
The track features on their upcoming new EP ‘Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This‘, out on November 18th, and comes hot on the heels of their first UK number one album, Fix Yourself, Not The World, which topped the charts in January of this year. Pre-order it here.
Recorded shortly after completing their acclaimed fifth studio album, Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This? is The Wombats rawest material yet, trading polished synths for spiky guitar riffs and heavy choruses. The band themselves co-produced part of the project themselves, bassist Tord Øverland Knudsen then taking some files back to his homeland of Norway to be mixed in his home studio, with regular collaborators Mike Crossey and Mark Crew working on the remainder.
Opening with a slamming earworm of a riff, ‘I Think My Mind Has Had Its Mind Made Up’ finds frontman Matthew “Murph” Murphy in a typically philosophical mood as he reflects on his own psyche.
Speaking about it, he explains: “It’s a glitchy ode to the ’90s, innocence, and escapism.”
